    how about the fact that tickets are not priority seating by when they are purchased rather by your member number moron, if your implying that one part of the country are bigger fans than the other parts you have deeper issues to deal with rather than posting on this board

    They just didn't sell out in a day. They will sell out eventually.

    You don't need to imply it. Pearl Jam has a bigger fan base in the northeast than the southeast. That's pretty much fact at this point. Now I'm not here to take anything away from you guys who are just as die hard as anyone, but overall as a region, there is a lesser volume of you guys down south. Why take that as so offensive?

    Because we've paid our dues and have been waiting a long time for this. We bought our tickets, a lot of people bought more than one pair but according to some people, PJ should never touch the south, we don't deserve a show, etc...

    People are getting pissed because from the day the dates went up, there's been threads about how the southern shows are going to suck and that the shows at MSG are where all the shows should be. It seem like people don't expect the south to be capable of building a large venue, much less one that's bigger than MSG and holds more people (Tampa).


    Not to mention people keep talking about these shows not selling out in a matter of minutes when apparently this was the case for the gorge shows and chicago in 06.

    He is not a iddiot asshole. I want them to play southern dates just as much as everyone else. But they don't sell well in the south. It's just a fact The Tampa show in '03 wasn't close to full. Same in St. Louis. In Little Rock, they pulled a giant curtain around the entire upper deck because there were no seats sold up there. Those are just the shows I've been to.

  • Who gives a shit if they sell out, in the South or East. So the barometer is set so high , that when Philly and N.Y. dont sell out they are going to stop touring there, and just play Seattle and L.A.
    I would rather see them in Fla, than Camden but so be it.
    Last time I check Pearl Jam members were grown men with big bank accounts, not 5 year old school girls that actually worry about who comes to their play dates.

    Ohh and such language.
    Some people have religion I have Pearl Jam.

    Slightly off topic, but still about the south....

    in 03, I went to the Nashville show. I remember waiting in line to GET IN THE PARKING LOT for hours, because of some bomb threat.

    After waiting for a few hours, I finally walked up to a security guard to ask what the delay was.

    This old codger said, "Well, we assume its a hoax, but someone called in a bomb threat. You know, their lead singer burned a picture of the president in effigy. that kinda thing wont fly around these parts."

    hehe, f'in south.

    no offense, southerners.
